A Peculiar Halo [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1920
ON March 16 I observed a peculiar halo here; its form is best shown by a rough sketch. The angles were taken with a pocket slide-rule held at arm's length, and are, therefore, only approximations, but the relative values are probably fairly correct. The halo was brightest at the point above the sun, and faded off somewhat on each side; it ended rather ...

“Say hello to Halo”: the halo effect in sports [PDF]

open access: yesInnovative Marketing, 2019
In daily life, people tend to use mental shortcuts to simplify and speed up their decision-making processes. A halo effect exists if the impression created by a dominant attribute influences how other attributes of an object or subject are judged. It involves a cognitive bias that leads to distorted assessments. However, the halo effect has barely been

A Second-order bias model for the Logarithmic Halo Mass Density

open access: yes, 2012
We present an analytic model for the local bias of dark matter halos in a LCDM universe. The model uses the halo mass density instead of the halo number density and is searched for various halo mass cuts, smoothing lengths, and redshift epoches.

Preventing halo bias in grading the work of university students

open access: yesCogent Psychology, 2014
Experts have advocated anonymous marking as a means of minimizing bias in subjective student assessment. In the present study, 159 faculty members or teaching assistants across disciplines were randomly assigned (1) to grade a poor oral presentation of a

Massive pericardial effusion: A rare and easily missed finding in myocardial perfusion scintigraphy

open access: yesWorld Journal of Nuclear Medicine, 2018
A 72-year-old gentleman underwent myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS) for sinus tachycardia of unknown cause. Baseline electrocardiography (ECG) showed sinus tachycardia and electrical alternans.

A doorway to Borromean halo nuclei: the Samba configuration

open access: yes, 2005
We exploit the possibility of new configurations in three-body halo nuclei - Samba type - (the neutron-core form a bound system) as a doorway to Borromean systems. The nuclei $^{12}$Be, $^{15}$B, $^{23}$N and $^{27}$F are of such nature, in particular $^{

Scaling of the 1-halo terms with bias

open access: yes, 2015
In the Halo Model, galaxies are hosted by dark matter halos, while the halos themselves are biased tracers of the underlying matter distribution. Measurements of galaxy correlation functions include contributions both from galaxies in different halos ...

Community analysis and co-occurrence patterns in airway microbial communities during health and disease

open access: yesERJ Open Research, 2019
Ecological relationships between bacteria are important when considering variation in bacterial communities in humans, with such variation playing an important role in both health and disease.

The outer regions of the giant Virgo galaxy M87. Kinematic separation of stellar halo and intracluster light

open access: yes, 2015
We present a spectroscopic study of 287 Planetary Nebulas (PNs) in a total area of ~0.4 deg^2 around the BCG M87 in Virgo A. With these data we can distinguish the stellar halo from the co-spatial intracluster light (ICL).
